Verdict
Venus Marina had fellow course and distance winner Born To Fly well behind when scoring at Lingfield earlier this month. Afkar has also scored over this track and trip while Red Unico was only beaten half-a-length at Ffos Las after winning at Catterick so goes on the short-list. WU ZETIAN has only won on Fibresand so far but should handle the rain-softened ground and can race off the same mark as when runner-up at Newmarket last time.
